"People shouldn't have to be ashamed to introduce/practice their culture due to fears of backlash. It is up to us to change and convert this unwelcoming atmosphere into one that embraces all for who they are." In reductionist termz, people are perceived differently/( often undermined to a fault; mind you, these are indeed big facts), in our society due to different factors that trigger an alteration of how we both view and treat people ( ahem, da fake ones); misjudgements. For instance, women often appear as defenseless or needing to be constantly hit on, and we often base intimate relationships on looks; misogynistic views are often promoted when we we're unaware, simply put. Universally, this narrow minded culture/mindset needs to change. Although it's human nature, to be shallow & ignorant for the purpose of ass-chasing/eye candy, it doesn't always have to be the case. As an alternative, take personality & appeal to a person for who they are, not how they appear as. Unfortunately many people still abide by looks and appearances ( i.e artificial construction/enhancements of the face via snap filters). Even though in 2018, major shifts and realizations are occuring, my duty as a writer is to entertain you while also implementing real world themes to continue the ongoing discussion of how to achieve equality and break outdated traditions. In any given issue, I want to disprove any harsh judgements or inaccurate preconceived notions as a means towards a potential solution and/or viewpoint.

So I urge you, the reader, to not misconstrue anything. Rather, my intention is to write thought-provoking dialogue to allow you all to contemplate the validity of the very meanings you hold to be true. Additionally, minorities are severely underrepresented in the media as well, often portayed as seemingly non-existent characters under a white man's lead. It shouldn't just be limited to African Americans and claiming a movie is diverse because we include them; that's not how you strive for true diversity. I thought that this, along with the following, should be mentioned as well.

Now a notable example of this women's issue is in the game ( more of a lifestyle really; no joke, it's a really amazing game with a rich story with deep cultural shii to it) Uncharted: The Lost Legacy on PS4. Lemme just say real quick that it is a spectacular game and i'd highly recommend it. Anyway, back to the point at hand. So basically, this game was under heavy scrutiny at first when people thought that the studio behind this had forced their political agendas into this beauty of an interactive medium. Forced feminism or something like that for 2 female leads. This was really dumb, and I hate ignorant trash people for criticizing this game over stupid stuff like that. It's probably because they're used to the generic white man lead role. I was a victim of this vulnerability at one point, but as gen z starts to become more woke, we're gradually breaking new ground. Whatever the reason may be, it certainly wasn't right and so what if the director wanted to implement this stuff? As long as it's intriguing, it isn't feminazism ( I hate that term btw, and just am pointing it out for you to know that not every view has to be to the extreme), in the end it's for the greater good in that it provides a fresh take on a genre that's usually dominated by a single sex/race.

With that big ass statement out the way, I was gone for a while, and I sincerely apologise for that but I talked about this in length in the previous chapter. Basically, I'm worried I may not be able to commit to this book much longer. So at this point I'm attempting to wrap things up and work on new projects ( who knows if that'll even be plausible in the foreseeable future). I know that's not a great note to leave off on before the story but I want you know that I haven't forgotten about Wattpad ( ahem, the continuous errors with story versions on Android, the terrible user interface for writers On ANDROID, having to scroll all the way down to edit the most recent chapter ON MOST DEVICES, having to CONSTANTLY restore the modified version (idek anymore bruh), the mf introduction of a paid Wattpad subscription to "keep things functioning" as an excuse to impose even more unskippable ads, the struggle to maintain a certain amount of views/likes ( or even to get any, mind you, etc. Not meant to bash but point out flaws that makes things difficult for writers who put a lot of THOUGHT & EFFORT into work. Hopefully a rep from Wattpad sees this 👐🏽👋🏽)~ 😤😤, and blah blah blah). Anyway you get the point, and this unfortunate situation had to be made aware. It's crazy to even say that this book's future is uncertain because I mean, look how long I've kept this book going. 3 yrs, GD!! Lol, this draft-turned-chapter from 2017 alone goes to show something. Its 5am and im typing away so just be glad you're getting something you pre teens ( no judging ofc cuz that's around the time I started writing this. But i just assume that that's the majority of Wattpad users, which is also why I'm hesitant in continuing to write..) Anyway, you wanted more story so let's pick up where we last left off:
